Liv-i'd...
Let me know what ya think on the writing. I'd like to do more short stories, or plot styled writing. Poeticly if possible
Liv-i'd...
---(Hidden so long, from so many
Time can seem expendable, foolish thoughts, found relaxingly aplenty
Delusion can bring back so much hesitation
Stopped in place, we face the always known possibilities of frustration)---
For my sake, in my daydream, this moment, I dare not wake...
The shadows hang over me, moving only enough to show intention
My breath deathly quiet, gives movement no mention
Cold hands hold demands for my life
Each one wanting to pierce pleading reasons like a knife
For this, I dare not wake among company as hellish as they
For now, I'd rather a stranger, blind to them, carry me away
No sight, no fear to show
Faces frowning as my silence continues to grow
As the scene takes hold of those present to a lifeless body that couldn't endure
I wait, for chance, for fate, to look away for just a moment unsure
For the farthest hope one couldn't ever see
The shadows wither once more, satisfied with a body that's lied, again...I'm free...
Slowly, I look about, to faces stuck with awe at my movement so slow
As they stare, I take care to patiently get up, & go
I cannot stay, not while my heart still skips
Off balance, struggling with my stance, painful steps lead legs as they try to avoid accidental trips
The alleyway my friend, to the unseen, I carry my being to its calling
Once in solitude, I can give in to this overwhelming sensation of falling
I need no help, no course in what to do next in my physical state
Death a given, I stride to hide another day from so-called undeniable fate
Wether a burning hole, or a shiny gate
Either one will have to forgive me for again, being late
Tomorrow my goal, while I still have control
My body, for my stubborn ways, will have to pay the toll
Bloody, broken, bare beyond emotion
My mind is still kind in its reasoning for such sideways devotion
To simply live...
That enough, for someone who has nothing more to give...
"For the moment, let me rest this shell of a man...
Forgive me if I wander again, if you can..."
